Galfab -Building on a Legacy

It is Galfab’s mission to produce equipment for the profitability of your company and to make your equipment purchasing the easiest and most pleasant you will ever experience.

Our mission is embedded in the company’s culture established more than a half century ago by the Galbreath family’s tradition of innovation, hard work and dedication to success. Today, this tradition is instilled in the work ethic of every Galfab welder, engineer, technician and support staff – all seasoned veterans in the manufacturing of waste equipment.

Galfab manufactures our product in Winamac, Indiana. With today’s logistics and infrastructure, moving products across the United States, Canada, Latin America or any world market is simple and timely.

Galfab was launched in 1992 by the Galbreath family. This is the original Galbreath family that had started and sold Galbreath, Inc., a world-renowned supplier of equipment to the garbage and scrap industry.

Don Galbreath is credited with many innovations in the field of waste handling and transportation, including creating the most user-friendly roll-off hoist in the industry. In 2004, Don Galbreath was inducted into the Environmental Industries Association (EIA) Hall of Fame and described as a “pioneer” in the industry. In 2016, he was inducted as a Fellow into the Indiana Society of Innovators.

Today, the Galfab brand continues to provide great service and products to existing customers, expand into new markets, work with customers of all sizes and supply products to equipment dealers worldwide.
